Default Still learning when and how to Iso Raise!!!

UTG recently lost his stack with an All in A2 vs A10 on a AK873 Board So his range is Huge. Button is a calling station. Is this a good time to Iso Raise to get HU with the SHorty? WHat would be a good size to raise too?


Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.05/$0.10 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $5.90
BB: $2.80
UTG: $0.40
Hero (MP): $10.50
CO: $10.10
BTN: $11.15

Preflop: Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6 Players)
<font color="red">UTG raises all-in to $0.40</font>, Hero calls $0.40, CO folds, BTN calls $0.40, 2 folds

Flop: ($1.35) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 Players - 1 All-In)
<font color="red">Hero bets $1.35</font>, BTN calls $1.35

Turn: ($4.05) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 Players - 1 All-In)
<font color="red">Hero bets $3.05</font>, <font color="red">BTN raises all-in to $9.40</font>, ????? Cant really fold this part can i?

Any thoughts on all streets of the hand?

a pf raise doesn't have to be very large in this case, since you don't have to worry about giving good odds back to the original raiser, and he can't fold.

as played, turn is an easy fold. that is a ver strong line, and you describe the btn as a station, so just toss it.

Have to raise pf. Just make it a standard raise as if there was one limper. Basically, you pretend he isn't there -- which he really isn't for all intents and purposes.

I think this is a text book case. Raise to $1.5, I think you should do this with any two cards in this spot that you arenīt folding, even much weaker hands that you figure to be ahead of UTGs range.

You need to raise preflop, and a fold seems to be in order on the turn.
